2002 FERARRI 550 MARANELLO // FIORANO HANDLING PACK // LHD For Sale

FOR SALE: V12 flagship in traditional Rosso Corsa // Fiorano Handling Pack.

EQUIPMENT
Fiorano Handling pack, Electric Seats, Mirrors and Windows, PAS, Air Conditioning with climate control, Luggage shelf with straps, Sport Button, Traction Control.

EXTERIOR
In signature deep Red ‘Rosso Corsa’ this 550 is in superb cosmetic condition with only a handful of isolated chips to bumper and bonnet detracting from a near perfect example. The Pininfarina designed body incorporates the long bonnet sweeping out and low to the front culminating in some sharp black front spoilers. The covered headlights are immaculate spread evenly between the large centre air intake allowing the large capacity engine all the available air intake needed. The headlight rubber surrounds can typically become brittle and loose over time although pleasingly not the case with this example.

Two side exit grilles adorn the flanks to allow heat dissipation, a well designed feature and a nod to the classic V12 Ferraris of bygone days.

INTERIOR
The luxurious interior of the 550 is well appointed, Nero leather covers the majority, beautifully stitched and using only the finest hide. Predominantly black, the cabin is lifted with subtle chrome features around the air vents, dials and of course the centerpiece gated manual gear stick. A subtle colour coding to match the exterior making this 550 a useable GT without drawing too much attention when out on the road. There is very little to report in terms of use to both seats and switchgear with only light wear to the ashtray on the gearbox tunnel.

The interior is free from any rips, tears or unsightly marks and the large majority of the of the plastic coating, prone to wear on Ferraris, is in good shape.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 5. 5L V12 engine is a design masterpiece and was commended with a win in the “over 4 litre” class of international engine of the year award for both 2000 and 2001; in this instance aurally amplified by the revered Tubi exhaust. Engine and drivetrain is in fine fettle having had a recent major service, including belts, on top of a regular and well documented maintenance regime from new. This example also features the revered Fiorano Handling pack to include thicker rear anti-roll bar and shock absorber ECU.

The mighty naturally aspirated engine is mated to the sublime ferrari 6 speed gated manual box, which slots into every gear with a satisfying bolt action, and there is no doubt that this GT will remain one of the last greats of analogue driving pleasure.


WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The classic 5 spoke alloys are perfect with not a mark in sight; shod in Bridgestone tyres all round there is plenty of tread; an excellent road tyre in both wet and dry conditions.

Brake discs appear to have had little use with no lips, grooves and plenty of material on the pads.

HISTORY FILE
Sold new by Cornes, Japan, this exquisite Maranello has been the subject of 9 services at routine intervals. The car has no fewer than 3 belt changes throughout it’s life with the most recent in April 2016, a service which also saw the install of 2 x engine mounts, front bushes and bonnet struts as well as a full wheel alignment.

More recently Joe Macari have just replaced the PAS pipes, a cat ECU and both door check straps with further work carried out during sales prep to ensure the car is on the button and ready to enjoy.

The book pack is complete with all corresponding service invoices as well as the spare key.
